Introduction

Overview

The ATEN Secure KVM Switch series is NIAP-certified and compliant with NIAP PP 3.0 (Protection

Profile for Peripheral Sharing Switch version 3.0) requirements, satisfying the latest security requisites

set by the U.S. Department of Defense for peripheral sharing switches. Compliance ensures maximum

information security while sharing a single set of HIDs (keyboards, mouse, speakers, and CAC Reader)

between multiple computers. Conformity with Protection Profile v3.0 certifies that other USB

peripherals cannot be connected to the console ports of the Secure KVM Switch, and that only a

keyboard and mouse are accommodated, therefore providing high-level security, protection and

safekeeping of data.

The ATEN Secure KVM Switch hardware security includes tamper-evident tape, chassis intrusion

detection, and tamper-proof hardware, while software security includes restricted USB connectivity –

non-HIDs (Human Interface Devices) are ignored when switching – an isolated channel per port that

makes it impossible for data to be transferred between secure and unsecure computers, and automatic

clearing of the keyboard and mouse buffer when switching port focus.

By combining physical security with controlled USB connectivity and controlled unidirectional data

flow from devices to connected computers only, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch series gives you the

means to consolidate multiple workstations of various security classification levels with one keyboard,

monitor and mouse (KVM) console.

Note:

1. The National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) is a United States government initiative to

meet the security testing needs of IT consumers and manufacturers. It is operated by the National

Security Agency (NSA) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

2. The ATEN Secure KVM Switch series additionally satisfies Protection Profile version 3.0 for

Peripheral Sharing Switch (PSS).

Operation

Powering On

When you power on, reset, or power cycle the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, the switch will perform a

self-test to check the unit’s integrity and security functions.

During the self-test � All Port and CAC LEDs will turn ON and then OFF. � The KVM focus will be switched to port 1 when the self-test completes successfully (port 1 LED

lights bright orange).

Self-test failure

In the case of a self-test failure, the Secure KVM Switch becomes inoperable, with front panel LED

combinations indicating the potential cause of the failure (such as a button jam or KVM integrity

compromise) � A pre-defined combination of port and CAC LEDs indicate the cause of the failure. � If all front panel LEDs (except the Power LED) flash continuously, it means KVM tampering is

detected or a self-test failure has occurred (except for Pushbutton jam; see below) � If Pushbutton jam is detected, both the port’s LEDs will flash.

For security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch becomes inoperable if a self-test fails. Please verify your

KVM installation, pushbuttons, and power cycle the Secure KVM Switch if this should happen. If the

self-test failure remains, stop using the ATEN Secure KVM Switch immediately, remove it from

service and contact your ATEN dealer.

After the ATEN Secure KVM Switch is powered on and ready, power on your computers. By default

the ATEN Secure KVM Switch will switch to port 1 after a successful self-test.

The ATEN Secure KVM Switch filters and emulates both a mouse and keyboard on each port after the

unit is powered on. If the keyboard, mouse, monitor, or Smart card / CAC reader fails to operate

properly, make sure that you are using the appropriate peripherals (qualified and authorized

peripherals); then power off the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, check all the cable connections, and

power on the unit again.

Manual Switching

For increased security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch offers manual port-switching only. This is

achieved by pressing the port selection pushbuttons located on the unit’s front panel.

Press and release a port selection pushbutton to bring the KVM focus to the computer attached to its

corresponding port (see Port ID Numbering, below). To meet maximum security and channel isolation

requirements, keyboard, mouse, video, audio, and USB CAC reader ports will be switched together.

The Selected Port LED lights orange to indicate that the computer attached to its corresponding port

has the KVM focus (keyboard, mouse, monitor, audio, and CAC reader).

The PC that has the port focus should be able to detect the peripherals after port switching.

If the PC fails to detect the keyboard, mouse, or CAC card reader:

- Verify that the keyboard, mouse, and/or CAC card reader is qualified.

- Verify if the keyboard, mouse, or CAC reader hasn’t failed.

- For USB CAC card reader (USB authentication device), please make sure the USB CAC cable has

been securely connected, and the CAC function is enabled.

- For USB CAC card reader port, please contact your administrator to verify if the device has been

authorized.

Port ID Numbering

Each KVM port on the ATEN Secure KVM Switch is assigned a port number (1–2 for the 2-Port

models; 1–4 for the 4-Port models; 1–8 for 8-Port models). The port numbers are marked on the rear of

the switch. See Rear View, page 7. The port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port number it

is connected to.

LED Display

In addition to the Power LED, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch has Port LEDs (Online and Selected),

keyboard lock (Num Lock/Caps Lock/Scroll Lock) LEDs and CAC LEDs that are built into the front
